Food Revolution Day is this Saturday

Got plans for this Saturday? You do now! Saturday (May 19) is international Food Revolution Day, started by Jamie Oliver and his Foundation to raise awareness for healthy eating. More specifically, the day is “a chance for people who love food to come together to share information, talents and resources; to pass on their knowledge and highlight the world’s food issues. All around the globe, people will work together to make a difference. Food Revolution Day is about connecting with your community through events at schools, restaurants, local businesses, dinner parties and farmers’ markets. We want to inspire change in people’s food habits and to promote the mission for better food and education for everyone.” (Taken from the website.)

Several local organizations are hosting events in collaboration with Food Revolution Day. Here’s a breakdown:
